Advice & Guides If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...
I have a history of lower-back problems: golf, long(ish) periods in uncomfortable ejection seats, sailing with a weight jacket and riding a road bike. Now I have 400 cc bike with a basic suspension. As an ex-cyclist I like to ride the lanes and the back roads where the road surface is often AWFUL. This belt reduces my back pain and is a great help. High belt gives more support for me.
My use case here was pain mid-back which would gradually get worse after about 20 minutes riding, making longer rides progressively more miserable. I've found this belt quite effective, sitting quite high, giving you that good reminder to engage your core more, especially when riding the cratered roads of 2026!! This belt isn't going to cure anything, but if you do suffer from any kind of pain like mine, it gives you a fighting chance to enjoy longer rides again, so I'd happily recommend it to others for the price.
